Ocean Spray introduces two new cranberry cocktail drinks

By

MIDDLEBORO-LAKEVILLE, Mass. — Ocean Spray has expanded its line of cranberry cocktail products to include the new Low Tart Cranberry Juice Cocktail and 2/3 Less Sugar Cranberry Juice Cocktail.

The Low Tart Cranberry Juice Cocktail combines cranberry juice and CranEssence, a natural cranberry extract made from sun-ripened cranberries; and the 2/3 Less Sugar Cranberry Juice Cocktail has the same crisp cranberry taste consumers love in Ocean Spray's Original Cranberry Juice Cocktail, only this new drink eliminated two-thirds of the sugar and is only 35 calories.

Both of the new 8-oz. beverages provide 100% of a person's recommended daily vitamin C intake, and are being exclusively sold at Walmart and Kroger stores, as well as banners across the United States.

"Products like Cranberry Juice Cocktail offer dense nutrients, as well as many well-documented health benefits that set them apart from other sweetened beverages, and now we're pleased to offer a reduced-sugar line for individuals interested in limiting their sugar intake," said Ken Romanzi, COO for Ocean Spray North America.
